off-topic - Komplett

Little off topic this, but I often see questions asking about good places to buy online.

Yesterday (at 2pm) I ordered a 40 speed LG CD Burner, for the staggeringly good price of 84 Euro including delivery. Well much to my surprise, it had managed to make it's way over from Norway by 11:30 this morning.

Now not only was that a fantastic price for a very good burner (tested it already, it burned my original Serious Sam 2 complete with SD2 protection, in around 4 minutes using clonecd), but the service has been outstanding.

2 thumbs up from Komplett. I'd recommend the burner too, it's a cracker for that price.

Yea.. you gotta love them. just dont order stuff thats not in stock.. I was waiting for a week for that Dragon MidiTower to come into stock but it was in on the day they said and it was out to be before 11am the next day ... i was happy

I think that they may hold stock in a warehouse in this
country as I dont think it would be possible to have
stuff get from Norway to here THAT quickly.

This is the DHL tracker which i watched anxiously.

...which number do you use to track the shipment? I've tried the one I think to be the most obvious and I'm getting nowt...

They give you a number and you goto DHL and track it.
The number is the one when you press track it on the orders page.

Usually takes a couple of hours for it to appear tho'.

You will only get the track code once the order has been shipped. Now, looking at my shipment.. thats nextday delivery! :eek:. And that time is also right. The DHL guy called to my door at 10:42 .. damn they are good!
